Dukal 222 - Oil Emulsion Dressing, 3" x 8", 3/PK, 36PK/BX
The Dukal 222 Oil Emulsion Dressing is a sterile wound care product designed to provide a soothing, non-adherent layer over wounds. Measuring 3 x 8 inches, each dressing is impregnated with a mineral oil emulsion that creates a moist healing environment while preventing the dressing from sticking to the wound bed. This feature makes it ideal for protecting delicate tissues, minimizing pain during dressing changes, and supporting optimal healing conditions.
Key Benefits
The oil emulsion layer ensures atraumatic removal, reducing the risk of disrupting new tissue growth. It helps maintain a moist wound environment that promotes faster healing and reduces scarring. The dressing is sterile and single-use, supporting infection control protocols in medical environments. Packaged in units of 3 per pack with 36 packs per box, it offers convenience and cost effectiveness for high volume facilities.
Compatibility and Applications
This dressing is suitable for use with secondary absorbent dressings to manage exudate. It can be applied in hospitals, outpatient care centers, long-term care facilities, and home healthcare. Typical applications include use on donor sites, surgical wounds, lacerations, abrasions, first and second-degree burns, and pressure ulcers. Its non-adherent design makes it particularly useful for fragile or sensitive wounds that require gentle care.
Usage Guidelines
Clean and prepare the wound according to facility protocols. Remove the sterile dressing from its packaging and place the oil emulsion side directly over the wound. Secure with an appropriate secondary dressing to absorb drainage and hold the dressing in place. Change the dressing according to clinical judgment, wound condition, or when saturation is noted. Dispose of used dressings properly and do not reuse.
Certifications, Safety Standards, and Regulatory Approvals
The Dukal 222 Oil Emulsion Dressing is manufactured under strict quality assurance processes and packaged sterile for single use. It is designed to meet industry standards for wound dressings and complies with applicable regulatory requirements in the United States and international markets. Certifications and approvals may be listed on product packaging or manufacturer documentation.
Comparison with Competitor Products
Compared to traditional gauze dressings, Dukal Oil Emulsion Dressings provide superior patient comfort due to their non-adherent, lubricated design. Unlike some synthetic dressings, they do not dry out or stick to wounds, which can cause trauma during removal. The packaging format of 3 per pack and 36 packs per box makes it efficient for stocking and distribution in busy healthcare environments.
Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios
Users include wound care specialists, nurses, physicians, and caregivers managing acute and chronic wounds. The dressing is particularly beneficial in burn units, surgical recovery areas, and long-term care facilities. Patients with painful wounds or fragile skin benefit most, as the dressing minimizes pain and tissue disruption during changes.
Best Practices for Use and Maintenance
Always maintain aseptic technique when handling and applying the dressing. Pair with an appropriate secondary absorbent dressing to effectively manage wound exudate. Store in a cool, dry environment to preserve sterility. Do not reuse or resterilize the product, and ensure expired stock is removed from inventory to maintain compliance with safety standards.
Regulatory and Safety Information
This product is intended for single use only. Use only if the sterile packaging is intact and undamaged. Follow institutional protocols and applicable regulations when selecting and applying dressings. Dispose of the dressing in accordance with local medical waste disposal guidelines.
